- Study compares opioid (hydrocodone-acetaminophen) and non-opioid (ibuprofen-acetaminophen) pain management post-rhinoplasty.
- 130 patients participated, with no significant difference in pain scores (VAS) between groups over 5 days post-surgery.
- Itchiness was notably higher in the opioid group.
- Findings suggest non-opioid medications are as effective as opioids for rhinoplasty pain, with fewer side effects.
